What's Special About Samsung's M16 Display Used in the iPhone Duo
This Samsung OLED panel is designed to achieve a peak brightness level of 10,000 nits.
Samsung Display recently unveiled its new LTPO OLED panel, known as the M16, which is set to power the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone Duo series. This latest screen technology sets itself apart from previous models through its LEAD 2.0 innovation, which enhances color accuracy and power efficiency. Importantly, the M16 boasts a peak brightness level of up to 10,000 nits, a significant improvement over its predecessor.
GSM Arena reveals that the M16 consumes up to 30 percent less power than the M14 panel, thanks to its 3,300Hz pulse-width modulation (PWM) dimming feature. PWM is a method of electrical power regulation used to control the device's main components, resulting in reduced flicker. The panel boasts a WQHD resolution of 2,560 x 1,440 pixels, a variable refresh rate ranging from 1 to 165 Hz, and a touch sampling rate of up to 5,000 Hz.
The M16 also incorporates an anti-reflective layer and a polarizer-free design, integrating RGB color or direct light filters directly into the OLED material. This display technology is not limited to Apple devices, as it's also rumored to be incorporated into the iQOO 16, Samsung Galaxy S27 Pro, and Samsung Galaxy Ultra.
